National Heart Month - Take It To Heart!

Heart disease is still America's number one killer. It is primarily a lifestyle disease, and it accepts contributions from many of our un-healthiest habits such as smoking (or breathing someone else's smoke), high-fat/high-sugar diets, couch potato-it is, and overweight.
